Looking for an engaging Halloween music craft that gives students meaningful practice reading notes on the treble clef? This witch hat music craft combines pitch identification with a fun Halloween project students can color, cut, match, and assemble.
Students match treble clef pitches and letter names to decorate their witch hats with musical stars. With two different matching options included, you can choose whether students read notes on the staff and match them to letter names or read the letter names and match them to notes on the staff. Once finished, the completed crafts can be displayed together to create a festive Halloween music bulletin board that showcases student learning while adding some seasonal fun to your classroom or hallway.
What’s Included
Witch Hat Treble Clef Craft
Students create a Halloween witch hat while practicing treble clef pitch identification. Two versions are included so you can choose how you want students to practice:
- Pitches to Letters: Students read the treble clef pitches on the stars and match them to the correct letter names on the witch hat.
- Letters to Pitches: Students read the letter names on the stars and match them to the correct treble clef pitches on the witch hat.
These two options give students practice making the connection between staff placement and pitch names in both directions.
Craft Templates
Hat and star templates are included, along with craft instructions and a completed example to make the activity easy to implement with your students.
Halloween Music Bulletin Board Kit
Turn the finished witch hats into a ready-to-display music bulletin board! Bulletin board letters spelling “Spell Binding Pitches” and coordinating Halloween-themed decor are included to create a fun classroom or hallway display.
How the Craft Works
Choose the version that best fits your students and the skill you want them to practice.
With the Pitches to Letters version, students identify the treble clef note shown on each star and glue it beside the matching letter name on their witch hat.
With the Letters to Pitches version, students identify the letter name shown on each star and find the matching pitch on the witch hat.
Students color, cut, match, and glue the pieces to create their finished witch hats. Both versions reinforce the same essential note-reading skills from a slightly different direction, making it easy to differentiate or provide additional treble clef practice.
Treble Clef Skills Practiced
Students will:
- Identify notes on the treble clef
- Match notes on the staff with their correct letter names
- Match letter names with their correct positions on the staff
- Practice treble clef pitch recognition
- Reinforce note-reading skills
- Build fluency and confidence reading pitches
- Apply music literacy skills through a hands-on activity
This music craft works well after introducing treble clef notes or as a seasonal review activity for students who need additional pitch-reading practice.
Create a Halloween Music Bulletin Board
Once students finish their witch hats, use them to create a festive Halloween music bulletin board for your classroom or hallway.
The included “Spell Binding Pitches” letters and Halloween-themed decor make it easy to turn student work into a cohesive seasonal display. Instead of creating separate Halloween decorations, your students’ treble clef practice becomes the focus of your bulletin board.
It’s an easy way to decorate for October while showcasing the music literacy skills your students are working on in class.

No-Prep & Easy to Use

The two matching options also make it easy to use this Halloween music craft with different classes or ability levels. You can choose the format that best aligns with how your students have been practicing treble clef pitches.
Why Teachers Love This Craft
Treble clef note reading requires repetition, but that practice doesn’t always have to look the same. This activity gives students another way to work with pitches by combining note identification with a creative, hands-on music craft.
The two included versions allow students to approach pitch reading from both directions. They can look at a note on the staff and determine its letter name or start with a letter name and locate the corresponding note. Either way, students are strengthening the connection between pitch names and their positions on the treble clef staff.
The finished witch hats also serve a second purpose: classroom decor! Add the included bulletin board letters and Halloween decorations, and student work becomes an easy Halloween music bulletin board you can enjoy throughout October.
